This movie moves at a snails pace which is fine when the characters are well developed and defined, unfortunately that is not the case here. A movie about self loathing can only be interesting if the characters show some sign of redemption, this never happens. Too many roads that lead to nowhere are traveled for too long in this film. The biggest problem is that the characters are so bland and nondescript that you really don't care what happens to them Expand

Why did the movie shows so much about that russian play and never explained more about it? No, I will not read that book. Expand

You get the sense that Hamaguchi is playing with the idea of prologues, of elements
